Logging in concern

[Marthe48]

Last night I was logged in and logged out for about 1/2 hour. When I logged back in, I was sent to the home page that has the Sign In button on it. I tried 3 times and kept getting sent to that page. I was logged in on my phone, but the devices aren't linked. I posted an o.p. last night about the problem and tried something else. I had also tried some gin, so I don't remember what I tried, but I got a screen that said I couldn't log in because I was already logged in. I thought the problem was solved, so I deleted the post.
I logged out and went to bed. When I got up just now, I tried to log in, and got the same problem. I thought if I deleted all of the log in links in the history on my laptop, I could try again. I saw a link in my history from last night that said I was already logged in. I clicked on that and here I am. I don't think that sounds right. Wanted to report this interesting event.

1. Hi

This is a typical symptom of a problem that occurs when you need to clear/reset a cookie. If you can let me know which device and browser you’re using, I can give you instructions on how to fix it.

5. Here ya go

Dell Latitude E5450. I'm using Google

I pulled up the systems settings and the delete cookie options. If I can just specifically delete cookies for DU, I'd rather do that than all of the site cookies

Thank you!

6. Here you go

Scroll down to the “Delete specific cookies” section and click “Delete cookies from a site” for the instructions. You can delete all democraticunderground.com cookies.

You may be signed out of DU and have to sign in again after doing this, but it should fix the problem.

8. Thanks for your quick reply!

As always, I am more concerned about DU security than that it's a problem for me I'll let you know how it goes

9. That worked

I couldn't see an option to delete specific cookies, either in my OS or Google, so I just deleted them all. I got logged back in okay.

Thank you for the help!

2. I had a similar problem yesterday evening not being able to log in. After several tries

I gave up. I guess it was just a glitch in the D4, today no problem. Like a new car model
sometimes there are problems to work out. Patience.

7. I'm not going to log out any time soon

I'm logged in on my phone, not linked to my laptop.

3. Got that, too. Lasted a couple of minutes and then just it went to my normal set-up.
